the dreaded pound


Got sick as a dog the other day....
Throwing up.... I think I ate some bad cheese...
That Irish Cheese was just too strong for me, I guess.

Then couldn't eat more than a few bites -
For the next 2 or 3 days.

And of all the things, I gained a pound!
Sounds impossible... but it is true.
Prolly just something temporary...
In the mean while, my only goal is to be less miserable!

So now I am back to walking on the treadmill
for 30 minutes a day. 
And I am still working 2 jobs.... but trying to get 
one day off a week. I have done the 2 job thing
for 12 solid weeks now.
I did pretty good.

Like this. Nice and Easy.

a nice stride


Found a little park with a Frank Lloyd Wright building...
Turtle Creek - this is the Dallas Theatre Center

Lovely little foot bridge

Took a walk around in the 107 degree heat
and ate my In-N-Out Flying Dutchman
Not much to look at, but it sure was good!

Very pretty

Kinda hot - too hot for me!
My two jobs are going great....
8 weeks + into it, and I am finally
hitting a comfortable stride!

My beautiful city - Dallas!
This will either be my best summer ever...
Or the worst summer ever...
Sure is the busiest, at least!

a day off

Ahi Tuna from RockFish

They brought me this... odd crap - yuk!

I asked for this... yum!

A quick summer fave

Can you see the eyelashes?

It was Miss Pats' Birthday...
She wanted a Banana Split

So they sang Happy Birthday and
fixed her this!

Dubliner Cheese at Central Market

Irish Cheese
Makes me vant some!
I stocked up on cheese and butter. Yum!

My $$ goals are clipping right along,
And I am still 99% on track on my diet.
Having a little trouble sleeping.
You would think I would sleep like a rock
after working all these hours.
Go figure!
Hope your day is going great!
